No, that wasn’t an error in the headline. The Pittsburgh Panthers (8-38, 3-14) secured their 3rd ACC win of the season with a little help from...worms. Redshirt sophomore Brittany Knight throwing a one hit, one run complete game gem certainly was a big part of it. Of course junior catcher Walker Barbee batted in both the teams runs on her hit to center field in the top of the 6th inning, but let’s stay on topic here.
Alexee Haynes ate at least one worm on a dare prior the game starting and the rest was history.
I’ve heard of a lot of different things that players do to keep their teammates loose prior to a game, but this certainly takes the cake, or in this case, worm.
